Being able to clearly showcase reduction, ROI, cashflows, etc. for a complex group of stakeholders and administrators allows my team to demonstrate the value of our work.

Joe Dizon

Energy Manager, University of California San Diego Health

It has helped us keep an account of our project savings that makes reporting easier.

Brian Sewell

State Energy Program Manager, State of Vermont

We have used the embedded code on our sustainability website to report on particular projects. This has been very well received by the marketing and media teams. Reporting on sustainability metrics using GRITS helps us guard against greenwashing.

Libby Hogarth

GRITS allows us to track, share and archive information and files related to our conservation projects, so it has completely replaced our old database without the previous coding and administrative management burdens.

We have used the calculations to help take into account future [building performance standard] fines as a way to improve our ROI. The goals tab makes it extremely easy to show how much progress we have made and how much more we can do.
